Welcome to The Prosperity Podcast.

Today’s conversation is a powerful reminder that prosperity isn’t just about profit — it’s about perspective, growth, and who you become along the way.

In this episode, I’m joined by Michael Lum, the owner of Stick Wraps Hawaii. What started as a business idea has evolved into something much deeper — a journey of self-belief, execution, and personal leadership.

We talk about the importance of ending strong without burning out, why taking action matters more than overthinking, and how building the right mindset becomes the most valuable asset any entrepreneur can own.

Michael also shares how identity, creativity, and self-expression play a role not just in business, but in the spaces and vehicles we surround ourselves with — and ultimately, how we show up in the world.

This is a conversation about growth, momentum, and recognising potential — sometimes before you can even see it in yourself.

Let’s dive in.
